I was wondering if you could do more close-ups of your brushes when using them? Also Summer is almost here do you have any great lookes with yellow eyeshadow?? Sorry one more thing ... Would it be possible to add more still pictures of your looks on your page. The video doesnt do your makeup justice and some real close up shot's would be nice!!

hi kandee!i love love LoVe the playboy inspired look!! :) thank you so much for doing this!! i don't know if you saw, but a couple years ago, alexis vogel had this infomercial on tv for her makeup line... i used to try and imitate the playmate look... *sigh* if i had only known about your videos then! :)

Hi Kandee, I LOVE your tips and tricks and ability to use make up to transform. You are an amazing talent and you are so fun to watch and explain things so well. I was wondering what tips you might have for covering acne/redness/scars. I try to layer concealer and foundation, but b/c i have oily skin, it seems to come right off or doesn't cover well. Would definitely appreciate any advice you have on that. Also, one question for you. Since you've worked in Hollywood for so long, did u ever work with a big star/client who you were starstruck by? Thanks! Keep these tutorials coming!

I LOVE this look its so fun for a night out!! or Graduation like you said.. Keep the videos coming!! I Love them! :) I Really like the Video you just did on nail designs/polish I have never thought of painting my nails like that Im definatly going ot try that!!! I would love to see what other Fabulous nail designs you have!! :) Have A Great day!

This is probably one of my favorite looks you've done, out of all your videos. SO beautiful and sexy. I wish you'd redo the sophia loren look with better lighting. Thats probably my all time fav video of yours :)

kandee, darling!! Thanks to you and your tutorials I have managed to make fabulous make ups when I'm going to any party.. people is amazed with my "good-looking face".. LOL the thing is that thanx to your make up tricks makes the big difference.. YOU ARE THE BEST!!AND SOOOO TALENTED!!!

I love this look Kandee! You make it look easy. Can you do a detail video of how I can do the outer V on the corner of the eye? What specific brush should I use? Like others, I would also like a everyday smokey eye and light lips look tutorial. Thank you for taking the time out of your busy day!

You're 30?! No way!I swear I thought you were like 22!!You are GOOOORGEOUSSSSS and your videos are so so so so fun to watch because you seem so real and down to earth and youre funny!U are flawless!!Keep it up :)

I love how you showed to buff around the eye with that round brush. I have never been able to have much eyeliner or shadow on the bottom without looking like I have raccoon or too deep set eyes, but now I know the secret!

I just discovered your blog. *luv it I'm a blond and I have kind of blue green eyes if I wear any blue or grey eyeshadows it makes my eyes appear grey and strips the blue out. I wish I could do this same look with a different color palette, could I do something like this in more of a peachy earthy color palette?

hi I check on your blog almoust every day looking for news. You are really an addiction. You make me want to be beautiful, feminine and take care of me. I admire your talent and dedication to your followers.I wish you do a prom look, glamorous, but without heavy makeup (dark colors). My prom is the 16 March, if you can give me a hand ... I would love it:)Not a hand, hand ... but was not a bad idea to have your hand to help me in my makeup :)Lots of kisses...From Portugal with Passion

Kandee, i LOVE love love this look, because my favourite looks are lots of shimmery highlighter on the brow bones, shimmery cheek highlighter and pink frosty lips and dark smoky eyes!! Just love that look - Please can you do a video where you realy play up BIG with the highlighters!!!!! :)

I've just recently found you on YouTube and I cannot tell you how much you inspire me. I'm in college and currently staying in South Korea with my boyfriend's family. The people here are very fashion and beauty conscious. As a girl who was frequently made fun of in school for being fat or too plain, I decided this point in my life would be a good time to reinvent myself and feel the way I deserve to feel. In the past year, I lost 40 pounds and have been making small steps to learning makeup, hair and healthy living. But I was really terrified of makeup. Usually, mothers teach their daughters the basics, but I never got that. Kandee, you really helped me feel more confident in my abilities. Thank you so much for doing your blog and youtube tutorials. What you have done means a lot to me, and I really appreciate the time you take to help people like me feel like a princess everyday.

I LUUUUV the blue! It's like Cinderella! You're so lovely! I just happened upon your videos on youtube and now I've decided to make make-up my hobby. My dad works for Mary Kay so I can get some fancy pants make up on the cheap :) Thanks Kandee! You're superb!

kandee!! i love allll your videos i love playing with make-up on my self but have never really done n e thing too big for a BIG event.. yet!!! my prom is in may and i think this may be the look m going for! thanks soo much i love this look! i hope it looks as good on me as it looks on you! thanks!!
